todays overflow of users smashing the game

i logged on this morning at around 8 o'clock am aussie time and iv been playing till around now 6pm i had a few break in between and stayed logged on cause of the full servers, my friends got the boot i was lucky not to woot i can catch up abit,
My main concern is im a non legacy member on a legacy server and i don't want to lose my toon period, i just unlocked all crafts, if i get split from the server im on and cant play with my friends and my toon gets wiped im ever going to turn the game bak on and im going to tell as many people as i can not to play this game.... now i love this game even tho i have only played around 10 hours of it. i dont want to have to slag this game for the rest of its life.

can a admin or mod confirm to me that i wont be moved off my server or lose my toon?

You won't lose your character, there is nothing to worry about.

unless your botting or doing something illegal there shouldnt be anything to worry about so i dont understand the issue?

beside the losing of the character which has been answered, will non legacy members get moved off legacy servers? was there supposed to be a segregation?
thanks for the reply's.

Non-legacy is allowed on Legacy servers. There has been no hint whatsoever that non-legacy will be moved or deleted.

ok sweet. curious to know if any1 elses client wont load the Jpn servers or there toons.

Least you get to play nuff with your boohoos

what dont you get to play?? ^ BTW **************** i cant play CAUSE THE SERVER AINT BIG ENUF

Well it's a good thing then that their fixing severs, adding more worlds and since Yoshida is so awesome he's adding a extra few free days.

Cool i like it, i had trouble at 1st unsubscribing to my 11 account cause of high demand, so the extra couple of days helps make up for that thanks Yoshi

You actually have the opposite problem. Because you created a character on a Legacy server, they won't let you transfer out of it.

Your toon will be transported into Toon Town. :C

Not that you'll likely be able to move to a high pop even if you weren't :<

I hope you enjoy the game however you play it and where ever you choose, takes time to adjust all of this and we are all in the same boat and Square Enix is trying very hard too.

all this spare time and all i want to do is play!! wouldn't it be better if they shut down the whole game for 2 days and expand?

The only thing that will solve this issue is the AFK Boot install... or how about an AFK BAN where if you AFK for more than say an hour your account gets banned for 15-30 days?

After all, the servers have a concurrent log-in amount of 230,000+ each server, which is what's keeping others from logging in. I'd say about 33% of these probably aren't even active.

This is false, and the restriction is only that returning characters cannot move to non-legacy worlds. However with the transfers happening in a week or two rather than the initially-said 6 months, it's still up in the air if there will be any restrictions at all. It's easy enough to determine who is and who isn't a returning character, especially since returning characters received that opportunity to recreate their characters.

They announced they were expanding their datacenter capacity and adding new servers. The upgrades are going to take effect on Tuesday or Wednesday depending on what time in Japan they take effect.

that's not a knife, this is a knife
